Finally got round to getting on with fitting new fuel lines and was thinking now might be the best time to check the tank strainer.

But is it something worth doing? I have seen others have had nightmares including the fitting coming away from the tank, ending up having to replace the whole tank

Cheers, Dave

Yep I pulled out from doing that after all the horror stories. New pump (faulty return valve on old one), new flexies and filter. Did fuel flow and pressure test all fine. I just make sure I always have 2 galls min in the tank. Pressure tester from Arnwerx all info on Clarke's rip. Fortunaltely hard lines are in good condition. She really runs like a top now, pump and crank sensor were my problems.
